2023 ROCHESTER MUSIC HALL OF FAME RECAP

I had a blast being part of the festivities, which included a guest appearance by Don Henley of Eagles (there’s no “the” in Eagles – ha ha!) to induct his fellow bandmate, music director Will Hollis. Our part of the show – the induction of our late bandmate/friend/etc Sebastian Marino went well. Of course, there were a couple of technical difficulties with me (there always are!), such as my monitor deciding to stop working at the beginning of the second song as well as my ride cymbal deciding to change it’s angle all on its own. Ah well, who needs to hear anything on stage while you’re playing, right? HA HA! All in all, it was amazing to be part of such a great show and I’m very honored and thankful to have been included!

NEW UPDATE!

Hey kids – here are a couple of updates for now. Firstly, I’m honored and thrilled to be playing this Sunday (April 30) at the Rochester Music Hall of Fame show at the Eastman Theater in honor of my buddy Sebastian Marino (who passed away this past New Year’s Eve), who will be inducted! We all know that Seb had a huge impact on the local music scene! I also will be reunited with my former bandmate Joe Comeau, who played with Seb and I many years ago in “Ramrod”. You can check out some of the music we made together on the music page on my website). I’m sure we’ll be making some ears bleed at the show on Sunday in honor of Seb…..and I’m sure that he wouldn’t want it any other way! In other news, stay tuned for a possible cool show coming at the end of the summer in Michigan – that’s all I can say for now since nothing is confirmed as of now!

This past weekend

BACK AT IT ON STAGE!

I cant wait to get back on stage with my band Forum on July 31 at the Lima Crossroads Music Fest! It’s been way too long since I’ve set foot on a stage since the pandemic hit. I’m expecting lotsa blisters and blood by the end of the show!
